Hello! My name is Guillermo (even though most people call me Gigi!) and I'm a Spanish 24-year-old student currently studying an Erasmus Mundus Master in Tourism management in Denmark, Slovenia and Spain. I graduated in the UK, where I lived for 4 years, and I also lived for 1 year in Japan (yes, I do speak a bit of Japanese haha)

I guess that a simple and very straight-forward way to define myself is a very outgoing guy and a pure joke-lover. I'm super passionate about photography (@guillehtgn on Instagram :D) and always up for a photoshoot! Also highly interested in feminism and LGBT+ issues. I've been vegan for two years too, so if you wanna try some vegan dishes I'd be happy to make a meal! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Basically I left Spain to make my dream come true. That is, visit every place in this world. However, due to my financial situation I tend to live on a budget so I was sort of "forced" to start staying in hostels with like 16 people in the same room. However, I absolutely loved it! I found it great to meet so many travellers with different stories from every part of the world and I just wanted to give Couchsurfing a go! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working full-time while being a full-time university student and learning Japanese at the same time!

Lived in 9 different places across 7 countries so far

Climbed up Pedra Da Gavea in Rio de Janeiro without previous training :P

Somehow survived 2 hours standing still outside in Finland at 2am with a temperature of -37ºC while trying to see the Northern Lights... (I did get to see them though!)
